Day 24 of Predicting the 2026 MLB Season with a Marble Race – 7th Place Simulation

26 comments
  1. Dodgers are gonna win this whole thing just because they have the money to purchase better marbles.

  2. I thought the Rangers were actually going to come in second overall, they’ve been the runner up or close to it so many times

  3. The Brew Crew wanted it so bad. Texas grabbing defeat from the jaws of 2nd to last place.

  5. They took away TeTas.

    They took away the nipple obstacles.

    The Rangers marble decided there was no reason to continue.

  6. Welp, at least we clinched the division and 1st round bye well in advance. Rangers will host the Twins or Mariners in the ALDS.
